Re: [Electric Boats] Re: converter

 

Hi Eric
    How much power is lost due to the conversion.    Is it appreciable or negligible?
For example, if I had the choice between running a certain item off of DC or off
of AC ,  would my battery bank last a lot longer off DC?

Thanks George

What do you want to know? There are inverters available in many regular retail outlets that will convert 12VDC to 120VAC, ranging from 150 to 500 watts. Sine wave AC output is better for electronics. Anything else?

Fair winds,
Eric
